Subtitled: _Hugh Jass’es – Full Blown, Soup to Nuts, Supplemental Poll_ **First: The Who’s, What’s, Where’s & Why’s of the Supplemental Poll** In an attempt to squeeze as many bands in the shortest amount of time possible, The Monday 6 @ 6 Poll, is once again featuring a supplemental poll. A while back, **Hugh Jass** requested we run a “Buffalo Springfield 6@6 Poll” in The Café Society…Here it is. This supplemental poll, like the regularly scheduled [\*\* Byrds\*\* thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=137483) will be closed and tallied 7 days from today, Monday October 7, 2002 at 6PM EDT (If the Irish flu doesn’t catch up to me and I make it into work that day). Results from both polls will be posted a few minutes later on that same day in _Week #25_’s regularly scheduled _Jimmy Buffet 6 @ 6 Poll_. **Second: The Poll & How it Works** It’s simple enough, post your **6** favorite songs by the artist. Personal observations, opinions, liner notes, comments and the like are always welcome but are in no means required. **Third: The Supplemental Poll Artist’s Discography** (Reader’s Digest Version) If your memory of the featured artist isn’t exactly up to speed, here’s a link to the discography with 30 second cuts of some of their tracks when you drill down through the albums: [Box Set  Buffalo Springfield  Best Of…Retrospective  Last Time Around  Buffalo Springfield  Again](http://www.cdnow.com/cgi-bin/mserver/SID=2140474880/pagename=/RP/CDN/FIND/popsearch.html/clickID=tn_srch_txt) **Lastly: The Supplemental Poll Artist of the Week** Without further ado, not farm equipment…the Band known as: **Buffalo Springfield**. No need to include any incestuous post Springfield projects from Steven Stills, Neil Young, Jim Messina. Or for that matter any of the offshoots: Souther Hillman Furay Band, Manassas, CSN(Y) or Poco…we’ll cover them later down the alphabet. Here are my _6_ **Buffalo Springfield** selections: 1. Go And Say Goodbye I’d describe it as a blueprint for everything that followed it 2. Sit Down, I Think I Love You Psychedelic country rock 3. For What It’s Worth (Stop, Hey What’s That Sound) 4. Bluebird 5. Rock And Roll Woman 6. Mr. Soul What was Neil Young thinking when he released that electronic version in the 80s? So tell us…What are your **6** favorite tracks by **Buffalo Springfield**? **Thanking you all in advance**. Have a great week. ---

1. Bluebird 2. Rock and Roll Woman 3. For What It’s Worth 4. Mr. Soul 5. A Child’s Claim to Fame 6. Sad Memory Sad Memory is an awesome song that is often overlooked, and it almost brings me to tears every time I hear it. I love the harmonies and guitar part in A Child’s Claim to Fame. Both these songs were the work of Richie Furay, IIRC, I listened to some of his post-Springfield stuff and I didn’t find it as good. _Again_ is easily Buffalo Springfield’s best album, and I recommend everyone go out and buy that and _Fresh Cream_ right now for the two best albums of the sixties. That is all. ---

Woo hoo! My own personal supplemental poll. How cool is that? Okay, this is my favorite band of all time, next to the Beatles, Gram Parsons, the Grateful Dead, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, the Yardbirds and Traffic. Here is the definitive list of 6: 1. Do I Have To Come Right Out and Say It 2. Rock and Roll Woman 3. Bluebird 4. Go and Say Goodbye 5. For What It’s Worth 6. Sit Down I Think I Love You It certainly looks like “For What It’s Worth” will be the top vote getter. It’s a great song, but I always thought that it wasn’t very representative of what this band sounded like. “Sit Down…” always struck me as the prototypical Buffalo Springfield tune. Also, Mr Soul and Broken Arrow seemed more like Neil Young solo tunes than a collaborative effort by the band. Ah well. Thanks for having the poll! ---

1. Everydays 2. Special Care 3. Expecting To Fly 4. Four Days Gone 5. Rock & Roll Woman 6. Bluebird I guess I’m partial to the second and third albums. I rarely listen to the first one lately. ---
